About the Milwaukee Club: Located at 706 N. Jefferson Street, at the corner of E. Wisconsin Avenue and N. Jefferson Street, the Milwaukee Club opened in 1882. The rock-faced Lake Superior sandstone, bright red Philadelphia brick, and ornamental terra cotta trimmings contribute to the club’s characteristic color. Style & Speed guests will be free to roam this impressive building, beginning with the dining room on the main floor, allowing a step back into the rich history of Milwaukee.
